Hi Fabio (re-added i18n, please reply to lits) Still, it's an irregularity where the text surrounding a number depends on the number. This exists in gettext only as the standard plural form feature. Fixing it would require multiple such mechanisms: One for singular/plural, one for dates, one for ordinals, ...
It is not straightforward and would have to be added to gettext, and would propagate to GNOME and other projects in a matter of years - as far as I can tell.
